| Supervising Dalek Props at the RADIO Times shoot |
|
| a very early morning in 2012 for the BBC photo shoot to recapture the 60s Westminster Bridge photo shoot |
| It was a long process to get to this slick finish! |
|
| Many people worked endlessly, beyond the call of duty to accomplish the end result that was MAGIC! |
| many staff came and went... |
|
| But those who love the show (no matter how young or old) made it such a fun & memorable TIME! |
| with ONLY ONE original roundel from the TV series |
|
| it was my job to make 40 to complete the exhibit of the 1983 TARDIS interior set over Christmas 2010 |
| PREPARATION WAS KEY! |
|
| I was given roughly TWO week to actually 'get in' OLYMPIA 2 which meant a lot had to be done before |
| At first it was ALL very messy, dusty & horrible! |
|
| to the left you can see the empty space -where I constructed the classic series interior set! |
| structural repair, texturing, strengthening... |
|
| layer after layer.... |
| window after window |
|
| left to right back & front, the top and bottom all needed work... |
| but with a bit of artistry and love... |
|
| paint stakingly detailed restorative work.... |
| Job DONE!... |
|
| press photo's commence. |
| I was actually inside the Tardis in this shot! |
|
| I helped Peter's wife Liz take lots of photo's and film for a convention in USA! |
| Myself & Peter |
|
| Peter Davison's really MY Doctor as I watched in the 80s |
| I had to match the paint remaining from the series |
|
| This bit was fun, the walls were assembled and with every stroke of the brush the TARDIS appeared! |
| One of June Hudson's most wonderful creations! |
|
| The perhaps less famous Tom Baker scarf was to dress the classic series TARDIS interior set. |
| Bonnie Gocze's reproduction of TomBaker's scarf |
|
| Bonnie Gocze created THE most accurate replica EVER! which featured in 'The Name Of The Doctor' 2013 |
| behind the scenery! |
|
| classic series Daleks! |
|
| some replica, some partly & or entirely authentic BBC, but ALL filming props from the story 'Asylum' |
| a storage facility! The mess begins again! |
|
| school room 'A' was utilised before and after the get in and out, as storage space. SPOT THE MONSTER |
| Breaking it down & removal of exhibition! |
|
| Heart breaking at the time,but mindful that it was 'moving'NOT the end (cue Tom Baker's last speech) |
| pressure was HIGH! we had days til opening |
|
| So, We all pulled together - worked over time and focussed on getting everything ready in time! |
| WHAT A MESS!!! |
|
| on arrival - knowing we had three days to make this work, my heart sank at the state of everything! |
| putting the final touches to The 1983 interior set |
|
| unlike Olympia I was able to finish the painting and flats & FLOORING before the console was placed |
| et voila! the finished display at Cardiff |
|
| The space was smaller, but once you build the thing and dress it, with good lighting it works! |
| The result was very pleasing! ;-) |
|
| 7 blues were used to create the authentic look-the replica on the previous page was my practice run! |
